Woe has fallen upon the cabinet of
Cleveland and its respective wives. An
ediet from the executive summons them
te state dinner with Queen Kapioiani,
of Hawaii. Queen Kapiolaniis is as black
as the high card in the spades suit, her
hair is woolly and her features of pro-
nonnced African type, Ana the official
blue blood of the land is commanded to
sit down and eat with her. Secretary
Lamar, plantation born, feels the strain
more than any OF the others and centem.
plates maintaining the traditions OF his
forefathers byGremaining away from the
banquet. The fine sensibilitIes Of the
postmaster general are shocked and the
aristocratic notions of his associates are
arrayed against this unpalatable execu-
tive order. Meanwhile the president and
his wife are treating the queen of Hawaii
with all the consideration due person
of high rank, ignoring her complexion,
her hair and her lips and nose. It is
intimated that there is possibility of q
strike in the cabinet and the cabinet
households before the dinner hour
arrives.

of Pearl and Third streets. The office
was supplied with Washington hand
press and quarto Gordon, and the en-
ployees of the Office numbered two per-
sons. Last Saturday evening there were
eighty-tive persons on the regular pay
roll, exclusive of the carrier service and
correspondents, and over $1,000 was
paid out over the Journal counter for
the weeks wages.

thoroughly infused among the
people there is something startling
in the voice from the other side which

forbidden traditions of wer days in q
epistolary attack upon General Sheridan.
which liberates the pent up gall of the
late confederacy and sends it forth to
poison the atmosphere of nearly quar-
ter of century OF peace. General
Rosses has learned that General Sheri-
dan contemplates visit to the Shenan-
doah valley, the scene of his effective
military exp lofts, and the wrath of Gem
eral Rosser efferversces and explodes. He
writes:
Gold cruel and brutal must be the
character of this soldier who fondly
cherishes memories of the wild wanton
waste and desolation which his barhar.
GUS torches spread through the valley,
laying in ashes the beautiful and happy
homes of innocent woman, young and
helpless children and aged men and who
over these ruins boasted that now
crow can not fly over this
valley without carrying its rations.
Gen. Sheridan has done nothing since
the war to atone for his cruel barbarism
during the war, u /
now say to you, my dear major, and to
our gallant comrades who are now IN the
valley, that hope you will allow this
man to make his triumphant ride up
the valley in peace; but let him go, like
a miserable. crow, carrying his rations
with hum.
Least deserving OF all the union gen
erals Of such partisan arraignment as
this is General Sheridan. He devastated
the valley of the Shenandoah in the
days of the war that peace might rise
from the blackened trail of his armies.
He struck with vigor becausa the case
demanded heroic treatment. He con-
quered and the torrent of blood was
stayed. He had his orders and like o
faithful soldier obeyed them end because
he did obey them prosperity has
spread its broad wings over

eral Rossers words will fan into fame
the smouldering fires Of not yet extin-
guished tats and because he has written
them it will take yet little while longer
to bury the dead past along with the
dead hopes of the weakening faction he
represents. If the uncanny spooks oil
the confederate grave yard would be
content to rest in the dull shadows of
their appropriate abiding place the
world would forget their blood stained

Paralyzed but Pleased.

A young Minneapolis artist named
Fournier does not sympathize with L.
natius Donnelly in his estimation of
James j. Hill and his hornless bulls.
This artist, who has not yet passed the
period when dollar looks pretty big
to him, painted a picture of Mr.. Hills
magnificent stone-arch viaduct Just be-
low the falls A lawyer friend, who
was shown the painting advised the
artist to take it to Mr.. Hill and see if
he would not buy it. Armed with a
note of introduction, he presented
himself and his picture before the great
railroad monarch. Mr. Hill looked at
the painting, then at the artist, and
without any further ado sat down and
wrote out Il check for $500. The young
man was paralyzed but pleased.-St.
